I propose a section of 'Members cars for sale' might be a good idea, perhaps as a sub-forum of the country forums.

Now the Eos has passed it's 4th birthday there are members of the forum selling their cars. As a waiting buyer of a used Eos it would be nice to have the opportunity to buy a car from a member of this forum who is likely to have loved and cared for their car better than your average owner. We'd be able to differentiate a regular poster from a newbie by their posting history. I'm not suggesting a full sale adverts section, but if the owner advertises it on Autotrader or similar it would be good for the member to be able to post the news of the sale on a specific section here.

The Eos is a difficult car to buy used. The roof and possible leak problems make buying a used car a gamble, so any knowledge of the car history and ownership is a benefit.

I second that....and would still like to see a section for cleaning and detailing in order to share stories of our favorite products or challenges in maintaining our interiors and exteriors.

Do you think this section will get lots of posts?

Andrew, the answer is a definite yes. A similar section on the Australian VWwatercooled forum is very active:

While you are at the admin controls, you might consider including a "Audio, Entertainment & Electronics Systems" category under the Technical Q & A header. Another popular topic:
